Hellow!

I have one question about switching external storage for Oracle RDBMS.
Oracle uses ASM and disk devices are masked using symbolic links.

We want to change storage - we bought a new storage arry .
For moving Oracle I was considering two options for ASM data migration:

- Using ASM, add new disks and drop the old one and let ASM rebalance data.

- To copy data using storage tools and then just change symbolic links
locations.


Would the second method work?
